Fishing Season Opens Saturday The fishing season which opened Saturday attracted the usual num ber of sportsmen with the favored fishing spots crowded for the first few hours. Some lucky fishermen caught the limit at both the Do- rena lake region and the Cottage Grove lake according to reports. Quite a few went up the McKen zie river and others went to the coast, but none had as much luck as some of the local fishermen. State rejxrrts said the Dorena lake area was one of the best in the state. Other favored areas were in the Tillamook vicinity.

BIO GAME W INTEKED \\ ELL Game herds throughout the state have fared exceptionally well during the past winter, ac cording to reports that have been received on a state-wide basis A mild winter marked with no deep snows and temperatures that ran above the normal, together with an early spring, resulted in an abundant food supply for the big game. . Bob Mace, biologist for the state game commission, predicts that there will be a high survival 'of last year's fawns which will insure good hunting in eastern Oregon where the mule deer of the first year has forked horns. On the west side the effects will not he seen until 1954 when the present spikes get their second set of horns.

BUICK CIRCUS HOUR -•ver/ fourth Tuaidoy, Warm Water Fish ProgramDeveloped Recent experiments by game commission agents show that there is a chance that an in creased warm water fishety can be developed in the Willamette valley. There are many ponds throughout the statT1 at present that provide fine fishing for bass, crappie, perch, catfish, and the other fish in this group, but studies canied out in a pond north of Corvallis give further proof of suitable habitat. In June 1950, a number of largemouth bass fry were collec ted in the sloughs of the Willam ette river. These fish were placed in the Peavy Arboretum pond lo cated about six miles north of Coivallis. Recently, the pool was drained and it was found that the 31 month old fish ranged between 10 and 16 inches in length. Such a growth rate is comparable to the rate found in many of the mid-western states. This pond is typical of other small ponds in the valley. The good growth is due to the great amount of natural food available, including such things as crayfish and water dogs. Warm water fish provide much sport in the United States and are becoming increas ingly popular in Oregon. The program to develop warm water fishing in Oregon is car ried out in areas where it does not conflict with existing trout and salmon fisheries. «.
